It's not an attempt to get Don back in the job, more a show that we are unhappy.

Sometimes people do this sort of thing

Just for the record, the gist of the Courier article is that CaleyD was asked to relinquish his post because he criticised the ownership of the club's stadium and its finances on a fan's website.

He will not now be allowed to continue the Twitter service, or be involved in plans to film home matches for the official Caley Thistle website.

"We parted company with Mr Johnstone because unhelpful and inappropriate comments were simply not conducive to an ongoing working relationship," said the club spokesman.

"He will not be undertaking any role for the club, though he is more than welcome at matches, as a paying customer."

The club hope to appoint a permanent successor for the stadium announcer's role, and has invited interested parties to get in touch. They are also keen to develop ways, electronically and by video highlights of benefitting supporters who cannot attend matches, and would be happy to hear from people who feel they could be of help in this respect, the spokesman added.

What I find interesting here, is that the un-named and anonymous spokesman described CD's comments as unhelpful and inappropriate, rather than untrue, or inaccurate.

Might I suggest a public show of support for Don at the next home game? Possibly everyone wearing colourful shirts, or T-Shirts that support him?

Gimmie me a bit of Natasha, Moira or Jackie anyday!

Rwwwwwwrrrrr

(Note, any indication that I find any of the above attractive is not true, well apart from that Natasha bird, marks out of ten? I'D GIVE HER ONE)

There are two hosts Alex

It's not hard to win you over is it? :mellow:

:blah01:

Na, not entirely won over but you have to give the man some credit... we asked for a responce and he's given one. There are still a lot of unanswered questions but unless he is bare faced lying (always a possibility)... 2 very important facts to pick out from his statement:

1) There is no debt

2) There is money in the bank

Did the financials not show a different story though?

Saw this tucked away in the stadium ownership thread and I think it deserves a thread all of its own.

David Sutherland, The Scotsman interview.

Please click, read and comment.

Good read that... Connsidering we were calling for some communication from the board, Sutherland has answered a lot of questions.

From what he says there we have no debt and money in the bank

Didn't the end of year finances show a completely different picture though?

Looks like I missed a great day.

******* work.

I think you will find you are wrong.

In terms of football, the strike rate is a goals per game ratio.

If you compare shots / goals then defenders would be the best strikers in the game. I would much rather my players were at least having shots and being in the position to score goals, then not even having the chances.

Rooney has a much better strike rate then Barrowman.

Another competition, another failure I think.

Draw is just about to be made. 9 groups, top 9 go through along with best runner up, then the other second place finishers go into the play-offs.

So there is no commentary?

Who is doing the commentary?

Unfortunatly, as always happens my work have extended my stay in Holland over the weekend to do a course next week, so I am no longer able to go.

They have screwed up my valentines plans too.

It is pay at the gate from what I understand.

Are we in the usual away end, or are they shoving us in the main stand?

Ordered!

See you there

Need to confirm with Roger but i'd imagine we'll be having a few pints before we leave central

We'll be having a few drinks before we leave Govan - Its my 35th birthday by the way.

Really? I don't think I have read that anywhere on this website before :)

I think I owe you a double voddy anyway.

Good stuff. Will keep an eye on the topic, if not send me a PM with the plans.

Seeing as there is a bunch of guys going through from Glasgow, I'll totally make an appearance, will be good to see the gang again.

Roger and co. I'll see you at Central. Are you having pre drinks in Central at all?

Cheers for the replys. Money isn't really an option, but will take a gander at all these places. Had considered the 27, but wasn't sure about the actual place.

I quite like the look of the River Restaurant...just need to get her to sign off on it.

So basically discovered that I am going to be up North for Valentines day with my girlfiend and I now need to find a good restaurant.

Obviously living in Glasgow, I don't know of any decent restaurants in the area, and my number one choice (Chapter One in Forres) is booked up, so I need suggestions and personal experiences.

Some things to note, it cannot be a bar that serves food, and has to be a proper restaurant. It's got to be good.

How have we gone from being one of the most frugal and well run clubs in the league, to suddenly being up **** creek?

I can tell you a local company that would do great pies. Two infact - Murdochs of Forres and Macleans the Bakers. Two of the best pies in the country.

Obviously there is going to be teething problems, but the new guys will know soon enough if there product isn't good enough.

Nice to know that despite being away for 5 weeks, nothing has changed.
